Quality Control

Our Di-o-Tolylethylenediamine is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, acids, and heat sources.
